In Ka Vang’s short story, “Ms. Pac-Man Ruined My Gang Life,” the reader takes a wild ride through the eyes of Asian “gangsta girl”, Cindy, who is struggling with her life as a current gang member and the future she has ahead. The author uses a first person narrative in order to better depict what actually goes on in Cindy’s mind. Cindy’s character in the story can be depicted as distracted and hardhearted as she struggles with the loyalty she has to her gang and best friend Nicky, and choosing a better future for herself. The author opens the story with “Mandy stole my boyfriend, Tiny.” The first sentence already sets the story’s conflict and lets readers understand the plot right in the beginning.
Although the act was usually but not always the choice of the woman, abortion was illegal and to end pregnancy was considered to be murder. In the two decades before abortion was legal in America, it's been estimated that about one million women per year underwent illegal abortions. Because these illegal procedures were performed by the woman or someone else who was not medically trained to perform the procedure, women died. In my opinion trying to make abortion illegal is pointless because the women will resort to drastic measures and other means to end the unwanted birth. Here we are in this so-called world of freedom but when we exercise that freedom, we become ridiculed for making a choice.
She says that most movies have kids that both witness and lose their parents or the kids are born without any parents and are raised by other siblings. She is right a lot of movies do have that she is totally right with that but all the movies need that to happen because like I said before they need that to be the basis of the storyline, the kid loses their parents and wants revenge or the kid grows up trying to continue the family name. She mentions some superhero movies that the hero’s don’t have parents or see their parents get murdered but if you didn’t have that in the comic or movie then what is the superhero going to start up with? What I mean is if that doesn’t happen then how are the heroes going to be the hero or want to be the hero. For example she says batman because he sees his parents killed in cold blooded murder right in front of him and that’s what makes Bruce Wayne aka batman want to be batman to stop criminals from doing what they do.
Its against the military code of conduct to have any sexual relationship while over seas with anyone so when a women is raped most of the time the military personnel believe that it’s the women’s way of getting out of trouble for having sex since the penalty for any sexual relation ship is being demoted a rank, losing a stripe or being relocated. Since the military hospitals don’t allow abortions to be done on sight women have to travel home to have the abortion done at their expense. I find it hard to see the justice in a country where rape standards are held so high except in the military where a woman can be raped and sent home and
The “sex” issue in the movies should be reviewed by the MPAA, because how could someone rate an act of love and passion when we live in a society with violence. “Sex” does not mean pornographic and some body parts have to be hidden sometimes but; why not consider this act of love the one that also give birth. Sex over violence need to be suited; expecting any kind of aggressive sex referred to “rape”, sex is not harmful to another individual. Now on the other hand any kind of violence is harmful and will consist of an altercation or even murder. “By the time the average U.S. child starts elementary school he or she will have seen 8,000 murders and 100,00 acts of violence on TV ”.
Partial-birth abortions, abortions in the third trimester, and the recent “day-after” or RU-486 pill now add a new aspect to the issue. Partial-birth abortions and abortions in the third trimester are exceedingly controversial. In these procedures it doesn’t involve the expulsion of an embryo, but it involves the actual termination of a fetus from a womb. It has been outlawed in the United States a result of numerous outraged pro-life advocates and some pro-choice who found it to be utterly inhumane. The RU-486 is said to be no more controversial than any other aspect of an abortion.
The Pro-life advocates who are against late-term abortion argued that life begins at conception. At six weeks the fetus heart begins to beat and all the major organs have developed. In that case, any action deliberately taking to abort the fetus is ethically wrong and is considered as murder. An unwanted child is a pitiful thing, the thought of terminating something that if allowed to run its natural course, would result in the birth of a human being that will bring joy to most families. The Pro-abortionist focused only on a women’s right to choose and all the social problems inherent in an unwanted child, forgetting that the unborn child is a precious thing that has the right to life and deserves the full protection under the moral and ethics law.
Diana Scutt English 090- College Writing Skills Dr. Schillig 29 November 2011 Argument Essay Mean Girls Bullying is an epidemic that our schools face; everyone has been bullied in some type of form at one point in their lives. Personally I feel as if females get it the worst. Females are bullied with words; while boys are bullied with fists. The media portrays these models as thin, beautiful girls; this ultimately makes other girls who aren’t as thin feel as if they aren’t pretty. They’re cases where females are bullied to the point where they resort to drugs and alcohol to make the pain go away, drop out of school because they can’t face their tormentors, causing some type of physical harm to their bodies, and or even resort to taking their own lives.
